There's none so blind.....

...as those that don't look properly.

I've blipped one of these birds before, but very badly, and after numerous hours looking for the bloody things these beautiful Lorikeets.

It's a Musk Lorikeet - and where did I find it plus a host of its siblings? Of course, in the oak tree in our front garden, not 10 metres from our front door. I mean, where else would you look?

OK so blip sorted but late in the day.

It's been a great day actually - a bit of work this morning, followed by a terrific lunch at Lucia's in the Central Market with our Blip friend GrahamMcArthur. We enjoyed a great chat about all things Blip related, and his work and our training, and shoes and ships, and sealing wax. As you do.

Then a bit of shopping - gosh, I love that market.

Then home, to blip in the sunshine - seeing that great grey pancake of cloud has finally lifted and given us a glimpse of the blue stuff.
